SAP Enterprise Portals

What is SAP?
What is an Enterprise Portal?
An Enterprise Portal provides:
A single point of access via a web browser to application, contents and services
A personalized, role based user interface, customizable to individual needs
Simple maintenance based on open and flexible system with no additional client software
Secure access from anywhere
Unification technology and predefined unifiers for database and legacy systems, which supports users in identifying business issues and navigating across systems to immediately resolve these issues
Need for Enterprise Portal
The Information Technology landscape in large organization is complex, and getting more so.
Such landscape are marked by following characteristics: Heterogeneous Systems
Dozens to hundreds of separate systems from different vendors require expensive point to point integration
Proprietary Technologies and communication protocolsDifferent business partners have no shared knowledge of business processes or access to partner’s business information. This endangers future success
Complex business environmentsThese environments contribute to a business nightmare with multiple dependencies and an average industry cost per year, per interface of $10,000

Generating a Role-Based Portal:The Role Concept
RoleA content template consisting of one or more worksets that model a typical job
WorksetA set of coherent activities that belong to one or more related work areas
ServiceA (complex) task or service that is performed in the context of a workset
The Enterprise Portal uses roles to generate a role-based user interface, simplifying application and information access.
